The DNC is already making that argument. No need for anyone else to do so. Especially Republicans who will not be believed.

That’s why this (Trump presser) eye-poke is so powerful, it has converted DNC talking points into arguing against themselves.

It is they who have now claimed that it was those evil Russians who hacked HRCs server, right? They’ve reflexively gone for the victim card and it is they who are attempting the standard play of misdirection-—it’s not the content of those emails that matters, it’s the idea that wicked people broke into HRCs private domain. And now they (the MSM) find themselves making the precise argument as to why those emails should have never been on such a server.

They have been brilliantly gambited and completly faked out by Trump. This is a shining stroke of political genius, perhaps one of the best in history. Understand, this is far above merely proving somebody wrong even with facts. Facts mean utterly nothing to fact and word twisters and 3rd-grade playground dirtbomb throwers. You can always question the motives of the fact finders. You can say that the facts have been taken out of context. You can say that the bad outcomes were not done for malicious reasons, “they only mean well”. Sound familiar?

But you cannot get the other side to argue against themselves unless you can somehow hypnotize them or somehow twist their logic stream into a pretzel. And this is precisely what has been done.

Though I am not one, I have reasonable experience with litigation, with lawyers and lawyering. And I can tell you with a good deal of certainty, the single most elegant, cherished and exalted chess move in all of lawyering is to cause the opposite side to make your argument.

“Trump has handed the MSM a soundbite that they will employ against him.”

Bullshite! Trump threw another grenade out for the MSM & the rest of the evil progressives to jump on & they have. The bigger deal the left makes out of this the better for Trump & the nation because he DIDN’T say what they are claiming. They bring themselves out into the light & lie their asses off for folks to see.

Vote Trump 2016

Say what you will but I don’t think this is playing out the way we want.

This reminds me of the Reagan “The bombing begins in five minutes” quote...
